Can I bulk age my wine in a carboy?

Although not recommended, you can choose to bulk age your wines in the carboy for several months prior to bottling. To do this successfully, we suggest adding ½ teaspoon of potassium metabisulfite for every 6 months of bulk aging in addition to the potassium metabisulfite included with your winemaking product. For example, if you plan on bulk aging for 3 months (or less), you would only add the potassium metabisulfite included with your product as stated in the instructions, then if you let it age for another 3-6 months, add another ½ teaspoon of potassium metabisulfite, and then bottle.
